Ugly, like beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Yes. Each to their own!

you havent seen her yet

I'm not sure anyone else can?
It sounds like Pillinger's morning, noon and night schedule wouldn't allow too many other opportunities for others.

He sounds like a viking.

Starting in Auckland, driving all the way down to Queenstown over 2 weeks. Haven't been to NZ before...

Crikey man , you'll be on the road most of your time there , haha.
Average road speed will be about 60-70 kmh on any given day IMO

It's a 2 day drive. 2 weeks will be plenty of time to stop along the way and see places etc. Towns come along quite often, it's not an empty wasteland like WA. Enjoy the nice lush greenery and hills and valleys and ocean and beaches.

A stunning country!

Yeh right .. haha .. good luck with those 2 days of your life.
Oh, if you just want to drive 24hrs then maybe fine, but if you want to stop for a pie , petrol , take a peek or a piss, you just aint gonna make it in 2 days. No chance.

Definitely not two days, but I'm hoping two weeks will be okay. About 1700km but of course in reality it will be more than that. I'm missing out on seeing the east coast of the South Island...

I am seriously looking forward to getting out of this fucking heat in the Wheatbelt. Last 3 days have been 40, 41, 41 and tomorrow 40. Whereas in Auckland it doesn't seem to go above about 27...

I've done it in 2 days, Auckland to Wellington and get the ferry over the first day, then down to Cromwell ( which is 45 minutes from Queenstown ) the next day, in a slow truck, with restricted driving hours on a logbook. Then the same return a few days later. 2 weeks you will be laughing. The Canterbury Plains can get hot in summer, but by and large you should be fine. Be prepared for 4 seasons in a day, most days.
